I learned this on Scott Kelby's Wednesday Guest Blog. It's a technique used by a guy named Calvin Hollywood, which turns out to be a really hilarious name for some German dude who sounds even more hilarious in the video on the post. But anyway, that's another story. Some of his stuff is a little overdone for my tastes, but I do like the manner in which he brings out the details in a photo. Obviously, he's working with a much more professional setup than me, so his lighting and stuff is spot on, whereas the shot above is just some natural light coming from the window. Still, I liked how this turned out, so I thought I'd use it as a tutorial example.
First, I cropped the original image below to a square, and added just a bit of exposure to it in LR2. Then I transferred it into CS4 and did the following:
1. Control/Command-J to duplicate the background Layer.
2. Set this layer's blending mode to "Vivid Light". The shot will look pretty dark now.
3. Go to Image>Adjustments>Invert or just use Control/Command-I. This will look really funky.
4. Go to Filter>Blur>Surface Blur and adjust radius and threshold to your liking. This is weird because you'd think that blurring the image would not be what you want to do, but it works, trust me. Be careful with the threshold so that you don't see too much "halo-ing" around the edges of your subject.
5. Once the image is blurred, it will look really odd. However, now press SHIFT+ALT+CONTROL/COMMAND and the letter E. This will create a new layer with all of your work so far combined. Change the Blending Mode to "Overlay".
6. Now here's the key: Delete the first duplicate layer you made and you will now see the results of the enhancements. Pretty cool, isn't it?
Well, if you did it right anyway...haha.
Let me know if you try it, i'd love to see what you can get out of it if you like it :)
i've been playing around with this technique for a while....i use NO filters or painting on this....its all on the blend modes on photoshop cs8.
About year ago I saw Thoy Bradley made vines tutorial www.mocpages.com/moc.php/276976 but it involved some cuting of the pieces which comes hard to me to do it so I searched some other solution. Maybe it is not rigid like Thoy's but it satisfies me as it is nearer to the pure technique...This is my first tutorial, so I would appreciate ANY comments :)
It is string secured with half-pin and 1x1 round plate on the end.
Tie a knot around the pin and than pull the string through it (make it sit in that little "cut" in pin) and secure the string with 1x1 round plate. Third picture represents how it is connected to the moc later.
Other end is a bit tricky. After you beaded the bamboo bricks, secure it like in first two pictures in second row. Last picture is combination of dark bluish gray pin and 1x1 round brick. Work on jour zen skills and make your moc green :)

This is an old photo (found here) that I have rejigged using a few of the techniques I have learnt recently.
I also thought it was about time that I had a go at writing a tutorial, so please read on below if you want to find out how I treated the image.
I am sure that a lot of you will know these techniques already, but if you have anything to add (or could suggest a better way of doing things) please chip in. Also if anyone wants me to elaborate on anything please say, as, like I said, it's my first attempt at writing a tutorial so it may go over some people's heads.
If you like this one then I may have a go at writing some more later on and putting them in a set together.
Here is the 1st page of our FREE tutorial. you can down load the full tutorial and other tutorials completely FREE at shop.haveyourcakeandeatit.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=16

oi meninas! quando eu vi essa foto inspiração no lacquerized.com me apaixonei total *-* e fiquei pensando em como fazer essas unhas, e desse jeito me pareceu mais fácil. Os passos são:
1. pinte a unha sem encostar na cutÃcula com o esmalte de cima
2. limpe os excessos e faça a meia-lua seguindo a curvatura natural da cutÃcula
3. passe a base mate sobre o esmalte
4. aplique cuidadosamente o esmalte de baixo, seguindo os limites do outro esmalte
e voilà ! eu vou postar outra técnica que também fica bem legal e não é tão difÃcil de fazer. beeeijos!
Used this tutorial from the group Its An Addiction psd.fanextra.com/tutorials/photo-effects/photo-manipulate...
Voy a mostraros como hice esta bolsita de aire japonés. Es muy sencillita, yo soy muy novata en esto de la costura y la hice en algo más de media hora, y eso que hice las fotos para que pudiérais verlas. Es un detalle bonito para regalar, aunque también se puede utlizar para aromatizar los armarios (si la rellenamos por ejemplo de lavanda), como complemento para un disfraz medieval o incluso como vaciabolsillos. Espero que os guste.
Remove top of candle, trim off as much as possible.
Attack sticks with hot glue. Cover candle light with hot glue. I slice the sticks first with an X-Acto knife. I bent the wires down on the light.
Paint with black/white mixed to gray for soot.
Attach cat litter/black sand mixture with tacky craft glue.

I'm calling this a kinda glasses tutorial, cause ya, these are like one step so...
If you go searching into the depths of etsy's supplies section you'll find a few sellers with these acrylic glasses in a few different styles.
I ordered from here:
www.etsy.com/shop/SVJewellery?ref=seller_info
I chose them because they were cheap, came in a three pack, the seller does custom sizes, and if you ask nicely they'll send you a mixed color pack with the colors you request (that's what I got)
The default size they have in stock is probably best for msds, they only just fit Knox.
I looked at a few different materials for the arms, but toothpicks worked perfectly. They fit sungly in the holes and won't damage the doll's faceup, and you can decorate them as you want, I left mine plain.
I just used a little bit of white glue to hold them in place and done.
(I don't have a pair but I think MonstroDesigns does the same thing with wire for the arms, these are way cheaper anyway)
Then just decorate as you want. I used some little fruit slices I had (also off etsy) and some crystal things I had left over from an old project.
Super cheap easy project and your doll can have awesome cat eye glasses! :D

How to make a felt bow tutorial. You can find the details on the SRM Stickers blog: srm-stickers.blogspot.com/2011/12/felt-bow-tutorial-by-te...
Aiai, chamar isso de tutorial é até uma ofensa ao bom português, mas tudo bem hahaha
Só quis mostrar, mais ou menos, o que fiz pra conseguir minhas unhas brasileiras..
1 - Na base da fita adesiva e da paciência, com a unha já preparada com base (e bem seca, pra nao fazer caca com a fita rsrs), colo a primeira fita, e passo o glitter forte verde.. Passo uma camada generosa, espero dar uma secadinha, e passo uma segunda, também generosa. Pra ficar aquele efeito BEM fechado de glitter..
2 - Com essa segunda camada ainda molhada, retiro a fita, e colo outra mais pra baixo da unha, pra fazer o amarelo/dourado. Agora vem a questão "destreza".. Tem que passar com cuidado o dourado, pra nao borrar o verde.. Novamente 2 camadas generosas, retira a fita adesiva com elas ainda molhadas..
3 - Por último, o azul. Não há necessidade de fita, por motivos óbvios hahaha, mas novamente tomando cuidado pro azul não "invadir" o dourado..
4 - E assim, depois de bastante paciência, chega-se nesse resultado hehe!
E pra frente Brasil!!! hahaha

Hey starting OOBers I have been asked several times to provide some details on how I do my page curling...so I put together some quick screen caps of my basic steps. First let me say this tutorial requires Photoshop CS2 since the warp tool is used. Also it is assumed that you have a basic understanding of PS. I would also highly recommend that you get my first tutorials and do them first before using this one since I reference them several times. Here is the link to those tutorials :

this is a look into the Lightroom's history of "a smile in exchange for a photo".
I started with a preset where I have a low exposure and with 100 of Recovery and also with some values in the Split Toning section, basically Yellow for highlights and Blue for shadows.
if you have question please let me know.
hope this is of any help.

I was offered the opportunity to write a tutorial for Advanced Photoshop magazine back in January... at last it's been published.
The tutorial uses my WLTBâ„¢ urban flat shot to educate and inspire fellow Photoshop users into generating their very own architectural abstract images.
It's quite complicated... so don't say I didn't warn you :-)
